Thread: Interior switch leds

so i am going to be switching all the red to blue and have sent a lot of time trying to find out what i need to use for the switches and have had no luck. so my question is will these work for everything?

Lot of 25 X 3mm Blue LED Lamps 15000mcd Free Resistors - eBay (item 270430541492 end time Jul-23-09 18:27:12 PDT)

i feel like 15,000 mcd might be a little much should i go with something lower like 5,000 or 3,000 ?

same things i ended up going with except i paid $3.00 for them on ebay, but i only got 50 of them. I also am thinking that i might do a write-up on the process of changing all the interior lights (switches, DIC, Radio, etc...)

wonder if you can take finger nail polish to them, like when removing the orange from the cluster needles?

Just brain storming here but I know from having my old Grand Am the Alero's had blue plastic under the rubber coating so if they fit that would work. I do not know if they fit though.

Tell me more about removing the orange from the cluster needles I am interested!

^^^ has a great idea. you can tamper with another dash cluster, hvac from a junkyard and experiment with that, til u get a good solution on getting the orange tint to come off. Saving u any mistake on ur only dash.
